Agnew Wslck CAMPUS BOOKSTORE Minority scholarship Cadets invade Saturday J Rv .iim JOHNSTON day than it has been yet tl fund drive goes on Faculty members, ad ministration officials and students are making progress toward providing money for low-income and minority stu dent education. The University last summer received a $100,000 federal grant for counseling, tutoring and special programs for black, Indian, Mexican American and low-income whites. The College Opportunity Fund, headed by Dean of Stu dent Development Russ Brown, was created this summer to try to raise money by donations for these college expenses. Money has also been donated by private citizens and organizations. Herb M. Potter, secretary lor the University of Nebraska Fo undation, estimated that "a little more than $27,000 has been given or pledged over the next twelve months". Attempts at obtaining con tribution from University students have met with little success. ASUN senators Roy Baldwin and Beverly Goodenberger collected about $180 during two weeks of the last summer session but, ac cording to Baldwin, they were hampered by a lack of time and only contacted a few students. Baldwin pointed out that minority and low income students need more outright grants than others because they cannot put up collatoral for loans. In addition, depen ding entirely on work for money often does not leave enough study time for the low income student. Both Brown and Baldwin agreed that a more systematic method of fund raid raising is needed because the students and administration need to know how much money will be available in the future. As Brown put it, "We want to help this year's successful student next year." In order to find a way of ob taining this long-range source of funds a five-member ad hoc committee under the leadership of ASUN senator Steve Fowler fs investigating the possibility of using student fees for low income student scholarships. According to Fowler his com mittee should have a report ready in about a month. By JIM JOHNSTON Associate Sports Editor Service teams have a way of getting up for big games . . . and the Army Cadets won't be an exception at Memorial Stadium Saturday. "They've got a lot of pride and they're gonna play good ball," said Nebraska football coach Bob Devaney. "They're dedicated and that's why they play better against the better teams." Devaney, talking to sports writers after Tuesday's two hour workout, didn't nwd reminding about the 1963 season when Air Force visited the NU campus. Nebraska enjoyed a 10-1 record that year and won the Orange Bowl, their only loss being a 17-13 setback to Air Force.

"(Van) Brownson hasn't thrown long yet," said Devaney, "and (Jerry Tagge hasn't tried running at full speed this week, but we'll play both of them Saturday." Brownson, who received aa elbow injury during pre-season drills, hasn't seen game action yet this year. His return should give the Huskers one of the best 1-2 punches at quarterback in the nation. "AH of our injuries are com ing along pretty good," said Devaney. "The only shadow of doubt is Ingles." If Ingles, injured in the USC game, doesn't start, the Huskers will go with Woody Cox at split end.

Orduna was selected Big Eight Back of The Week and Murtaugh received "the honor for linemen. This is the first time since 1968 that two play ers from the same team have been selected.
